Hiking to the Bear Creek Oasis

I headed off towards the Bear Creek Oasis from the Cove Trailhead in La Quinta, CA in February. Winter and spring are the best times to visit here. There is a large parking area, and is a popular place to hike. There are plenty of signs, picnic tables, and a restroom here at the trailhead.

Oak Canyon

Tucked away in Anaheim Hills is a small canyon, filled with oaks, wildflowers, and birds. Oak Canyon is a place you can get away from it all, on a short, manageable trail, beneath the oaks. There are trails ranging from under a mile, to a three mile loop here, for all levels.
